Grasshopper Circling
Years reveal what the days never show. Consequently, it is only when one looks back at their life can they connect the dots.
Thus, from this story: Brian wasn’t any different now than he was before they married. No, it is the same ole story that always features Bonn the compulsive bride. The scenario is this: She marries a man who loves her. Her reasons vary. She finds him (within a very brief period of time) lovable, nice looking, and of good character. Or her financial future would be well served if she had a husband. Or, it is time for a change of place and path. Then, as the years go by, she finds that life with him bores her to death, and he fails to meet her needs. You know, the ones she dismissed as unimportant, when she married. Additionally, she is not forthright because she does not reveal how she is feeling. Instead, she finds fault with them, and then she leaves.
The man, the place, and the role has yet to stand the test of time, and age has not checked her compulsion for change. With each new circle, what she thought was meant for her, disintegrates. That takes her out of the driver’s seat, and leaves her with the question – who is and why?
